Well I spent another few hours last week at my favourite surplus yard looking for that elusive carrier jack handle 17081 (both types!) and while going through barrels of old jacks I finally found a Walker 925 carrier hydraulic jack with the large head! The plate is missing off of the front and it’s missing some pieces but I have another jack I can use the parts to fix this one.
I have yet to find that damn jack handle though!
I did manage to find a couple of the bars for the cam adjusting blocks which I was missing from my tool list so happy to find those.
I also found some type of jack handle with a twist to it, painted green but no part number on it. Any ideas on what it’s from?
Also brought home a couple of bars that turned up some numbers, one being Budd 44201 and on the other side 41H 154110.
I found another carrier hook and 3 DND ARMY marked fire extinguishers.
